Show all 15Show fewer
  • Patients who are able to obtain market approved CD19 CAR T-cell therapies.
  • Active central nervous system or meningeal involvement by tumor. Subjects with untreated brain metastases/CNS disease will be excluded from this clinical trial because of their poor prognosis and because they often develop progressive neurologic dysfunction that would confound the evaluation of neurologic and other adverse events. Patients with a history of CNS or meningeal involvement must be in a documented remission by CSF evaluation and contrast-enhanced MRI imaging for at least 90 days prior to Enrollment.
  • History of active malignancy other than non-melanoma skin cancer, carcinoma in situ (e.g. cervix, bladder, breast).

  • Subjects with uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, pulmonary abnormalities or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women are excluded from this study because CAR-T cell therapy may be associated with the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects. Women of child-bearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test. Because there is an unknown, but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with CAR-T cells, breastfeeding should be discontinued. These potential risks may also apply to other agents used in this study. Subjects of child-bearing or child-fathering potential must be willing to practice birth control from the time of enrollment on this study to the follow-up period of the protocol.
  • Evidence of myelodysplasia or cytogenetic abnormality indicative of myelodysplasia on any bone marrow biopsy prior to initiation of therapy
  • Serologic status reflecting active hepatitis B or C infection. Patients that are positive for hepatitis B core antibody, hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), or hepatitis C antibody must have a negative viral load prior to enrollment. (viral load positive patients will be excluded.)
  • Severe concomitant disease or organic dysfunction that is expected to reduce life expectancy less than 3 months.

About this study

Official title: Phase I Clinical Trial of CD19 Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T Cells in Children and Adults With Relapsed or Refractory CD19 Positive B Cell Malignancies

This study seeks to examine the feasibility and safety of the administration of autologous T cells that have been modified through the introduction of a chimeric antigen receptor targeting the B cell surface antigen CD19 following administration of chemotherapy lymphodepletion regimen in children and adults with relapsed/refractory B cell malignancies.

Read the detailed description

The overall goal of this study is to validate the safety profile of administration CD19 CAR T cells and describe the toxicities in children and adults with relapsed/ refractory B cell malignancies. The dose is escalated in standard 3 +3 design with a starting dose of

1x106 cell/kilogram and maximum treatment dose of 5 x 106 cell/kilogram. The minimum number of 9 subjects would occur if no dose-limiting toxicities are observed in the 3 dose escalation cohorts. The maximum sample size of 18 subjects would be enrolled in 3 dose escalation cohorts (six in each cohort) for meeting dose-limiting toxicities request. In addition, we hypothesize that we will be able to successfully manufacture CAR T cells to meet the established release criteria at a minimum target dose of 1 X 106 +-30% cells/kilogram in this patient population using the Miltenyi CliniMACS Prodigy® closed transduction system.

    This study seeks to examine the feasibility and safety of the administration of autologous T cells that have been modified through the introduction of a chimeric antigen receptor targeting the B cell surface antigen CD19 following administration of chemotherapy lymphodepletion regimen in children and adults with relapsed/refractory B cell malignancies. The overall goal of this study is to validate the safety profile of administration CD19 CAR T cells and describe the toxicities in children and adults with relapsed/ refractory B cell malignancies. Each patient implements leukapheresis 2 weeks after enrollment and infuse CD19 CAR-T cell around 2 weeks after leukapheresis, and administrated chemotherapy lymphodepletion regimen 1 week before infusion. Furthermore, the treated subject would be following up around 2 years.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing CD19 Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T Cells in people with Relapsed/Refractory B-Cell Malignancies, run by National Taiwan University Hospital.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 22 inclusion and 15 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Jun 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jih-Luh Tang (886-0-72651057, tangntuh@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

80% Proportion of products successfully manufactured meeting the established release criteria with a goal of at least CAR-T cell 1 X 10^6 cells/kilogram. (time frame: 3 years). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Jun 2021.
